Portugal / Público: “Europa, a ‘colónia digital’ dos EUA”

Small local governments in Portugal payed hundreds of thousands of euros, just to renew their IT licenses.

Investigate Europe

We, nine experienced journalists from eight European countries, are "Investigate Europe". We will research as a multinational team. We will share, merge and crosscheck facts – tackling the usual national bias. We will point out responsible transnational structures and actors in issues of European-wide relevance to make it possible to hold them accountable.
